Abstract

Introduction

The interaction of dyes (crystal violet, malachite green, and congo red) with cationic (cetrimide) and anionic surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate) in the aqueous medium were studied conductometric and UV-visible spectroscopy.

Methods

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of both cetrimide and SDS upsurges in all the selected dyes on increasing the temperature. Thermodynamic parameters like change in Gibb’s free energy of micellization , change in enthalpy of micellization as well as change in entropy of micellization were calculated by employing mass action model.

Results

The values obtained are positive with and values being negative signified that the phenomenon of micellization is spontaneous as well as exothermic in nature. Moreover, the more negative in water as well as in the presence of dyes signify the presence of electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositively charged dyes and surfactant moieties. UV-spectroscopy reveals that spectral changes occur because of the interaction of surfactants with dye molecules.

Conclusion

By analyzing shifts in absorption peaks, changes in intensity, and alterations in band shape, insights into the nature of surfactant-dye complexes and their potential applications in various industries can be assessed. This understanding can help in the design and optimization of products and processes involving surfactants and dyes.
